Exactly the same. I have had both boxes togehter on same TV and there is no difference in the picture!

The people are complaining about sd picture quality. But only some are unhappy about the quality. For the most of us picture quality is ok. Nobody says that DM800 picture is better.

sd pictures as far as I can see, are as good/bad on either the 800/vu+/500

hd piccys, again are on a parr with the 800

but, the kathy units piccy quailty is best on both HD and sd but a difficult unit to get on with

also when comparring picture quality, it needs to be done viewing the some channels

as diferent providers offer differing piccy quality

but these are only my opinions, rather than expert

I have also edited my post...

Quote removed from 1st post. It was from the Origin Thread. I splitted the thread, because questions about picture quality were off topic in smargo thread.

well i think the picture is much better on both hd and sd on vu+ compared to dm800 br:sat

Hello,

I have seen on an other forum that some people have a better result in SD with the 576i. I find that it is also the case for me; I have a panasonic plasma (TH-37PX70).
What would be nice is an option to toggle easyly between 1080i and 576i without having to go through several menus.
Or even better, an option where the switch HD->1080i / SD ->576i would be automatic.

It is easy! Just install Autoresolution plugin!

It isn't problem of Broadcom. I had IPBox 9000 and with official DSG firmware picture quality is was great. When I flashed with E2 for IP Box PQ is the same as VU+

Since when is ipbox using an Broadcom Chipset? Isn't it using an ST Chipset.

The picture quality is not depending on E2, the quality is depending on the chipset.

I cannot agree with you. I am using an ipbox910 here. There is no noteable difference in picture quality between E2 and DGS.
But picture qaulity is always a subjective impression.

It depends of your TV. Same as music. If you have got computer speakers you can't distinguish quality betwen mp3 and CD.

First truely Words

SD and of course also HD Picture depends on TV and used Resolution. As bigger as a TV is, as more Errors you can see.
On a 106cm you wont find any big difference in Quality, but on bigger Screens you will see a difference.

So talking about Quality is nonsens if not all using the same TV
